Men ’s Styles Drift to Slacks, Longer Jackets Bv JOHN* MATHEWS The Webfoot male is as set on his dressing: habits as if he wore plumage. Campus cords, sweater, and saddle shoes have become an unquestioned daytime uniform with which more than a little tamper ing is likely to provoke unfavorable comment. For after dark the specifications are relaxed enough so that the man who is up on his toes can display individual apparel taste and still remain fairly within the code of conservatism that governs campus garb. Styles Change Though the style currents of Oregon move almost impercept ibly, the alert may detect a slight -artft. Grab your magnifying glass, Watson, and let's have a look. As everywhere, sports jackets are longer. They have come down to 31 inches in the latest models and are very smart without be ing reminiscent of Hollywood and Vine. Their partners in the perennial odd - jacket - and - con - trasting-slack combination show a trend toward flannel, particu larly in grays and browns. The coats themselves are as a rule the most refreshing part of the ensemble by virtue of the cheer ful way in which they carry the 0^«r burden. Despite the Atlantic war, Shet lands continue to enjoy a marked popularity, though the price-con MR. & MRS. NEWT SIDE PATTER Pat Taylor Well, to say the least, this sort of trivia is more feeble than usual, Things Being How They Are. . . . The general opinion on the part of the fel lows seems to be, quote Don *^vink, “I'm gonna go out and indulge in some riotous liv ing’’ . . .

The material doing the most re markable comeback this season, though never completely out, is flannel. Suits in both single breasted and double-breasted models reveal ideal adaptability to the fashion for extreme drape, the emphasis falling on gray and blue-gray. Those who rely on a “basic wardrobe”—three suits with interchangeable coats and slacks—to answer their clothing needs with a minimum of ex pense seem to favor the team of flannel, covers, and tweed. A word about vests. Except on dress or "dark blue” occasions, this item is about as common with Oregon men as skirts in the London club. Solid color sleeve less sweaters appear to have al most completely supplanted an old and respected article of male attire so far as this campus is concerned. The pullover version adds a little neatness, and seems to be gaining popularity. Along this line the happiest note is struck by the California lad, and one or two rivals for sartorial honoi’s, who sports a beautiful ly contrasting waistcoat with matching coat and trousers. The job we noticed was a soft yellow doeskin with notched lapels. Yum, yum. Last, show us the Webfoot male who doesn’t think a well kept head of hair is a better hat than any hundred and fifty dol lar Stetson and we’ll show you a bald man.

Instantly, the soda fountain boys, the waitresses and gathering students stood up, rev erently and quietly. “Smokey,” the Phi Delt mascot, stopped his aimless wandering from booth to booth as the gathering rose to their feet. Kiddingly - disturbed Alpha Phis at lunch began to joke with one another about what they would do.
